"To me, Drones are metaphorical psychopaths which enable psychopathic behaviour with no recourse," Matt Bellamy said. "The world is run by Drones utilizing Drones to turn us all into Drones.
"This album explores the journey of a human, from their abandonment and loss of hope, to their indoctrination by the system to be a human drone, to their eventual defection from their oppressors."
Drones follows 2012's The 2nd Law, which became the band's fourth Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart. Click here to view Muse's full week-by-week chart history.
